Keep up the good work but be cautious- Not everyone will appreciate your efforts and be aware that I do appreciate your efforts!
I have myself talked to Congressman and the Senator in my community and know what it takes to drag yourself to take such initiatives....
Cheers!!!

From Matthew Oh Website:http://www.immigration-law.com/
Dr. Emilio Gonzalez has just released the latest statistics of the USCIS backlog elimination status. The statistics show number of pending cases by different causes as follows:
Total Pending Cases: 1,131,333
Cases Pending Customer Follow-Up Action: 200,828
RFE or Fault in Initial or Other Required Documentation: 187,457
Others: 13,371
Cases Affected by Limits on Annual Immigration such as Retrogression: 793,722
Family Based Cases: 682,936
Employment-based or Other: 110,786
Cases Pending Other Agency Action: 136,763
4,905: Other Agencies Investigation Result Waiting
130,091: Interview Completed but Waiting for Name Check Clearance
Do these numbers agree with what we at IV have been estimating? Was surprised to note that only 110,786 cases were affected by retrogression in the EB category.

I called customer care USCIS, they say they don't have information regarding finger prints and you don't see updates regarding fingerprinting online. Is this true?

In a publicly traded company, it is almost impossible for one individual to siphon money.
I guess what might have happened here is, Satyam might have faced falling revenues year-on-year. In a sector, where each competitor is reporting 40% profits, to keep upto the performance of sector, they might have been pressured to falsify their revenues.
Now what i am unable to understand is, how come an esteemed audit org like PWC could cover up or fail to findout discrepancies. Either the auditors were stupid and overlooked, or Mr Ramalinga Raju covered up the tracks very well.
In the end it all hurts the stock holders and the employees. This one is going to go down big time in our history, and i bet its going to change the landscape of our IT services sector.

The agreement, coming after President Bush’s pledge earlier today to provide $4.4 billion for border security, revives a bill that had stalled in the Senate and was all but given up for dead.
Seeing the quote from the link provided, I feel all the ripped off $$$ from us will be used in enforcing border security..:-) They must've pondered "where will all the money come from??, and then someone must've come up with the idea, hey clear the GC backlogs of the past 5 years and make the dates current tomorrow!"

All this would only help the child continue to stay in US with a Legal Status.. But he/she would still be a dependent(H-4) that means cannot do any part-time job & at the same time pay higher tuition fees.. whereas the DREAM Act proposes to give GC status to the children of illegal immigrants.. seems a tad too unfair for those who abide by the law!

This is absolutely no-sense at all.
Texas, take about 2-3 months to approve 140 and 485. While Nebraska take about 4-5 months to approve only 140. This is not included 485 that back up from December 2, 2005.
You compare about 2-3 month processing time from one Center and another 1 year from another service center.
People there don't know how to do the mathematic or what, why keep sending everything to Nebraska still. Why don't transfer from the last person in Nebraska to Texas and have Texas start processing 485 in Queued.
We don't want people get process by Luck! or by paying more money and left other people behind.
What you think?!:mad:

Another interesting report is on increasing aging population in US. While India, China & other emerging markets have a lot of younger population (productive age).
America, Europe and Japan's aging population Time Bomb (http://www.d-transition.info/western-demographic-winter-2/america-europe-japans-aging-population-time-bomb-382/)
Module 2: Demographics of An Aging Population (http://www.ageworks.com/course_demo/200/module2/module2.htm)
What it would mean?
Well the younger workforce is ready to contribute towards bottom line of the economy thru SS, Income taxes etc. and offset the liability side of the budget... Another ammunition point!!!
India has a much younger demographic profile today, as well as a higher birth rate, which infers that India will have an advantage over many other countries with regard to demographic burdens from an aging population at least until the latter stages of the 21st century.

Optimist, thanks for the clarification. Do you get a 3 year extention if?
a) I140 is aproved
b) I140 filed but pending
Thx
not true. Irrespective of whether your 485 is filed or not, if your PD is not current, you can get a 3 year extension of your H1 if your I-140 is filed.
Saying this based on personal experience, and this has also been clarified by USCIS in its FAQ. Your attorney needs to mention that and ask for 3 years when the extension request is made. If they request one, they'll get one.

It makes no difference whether they allow concurrent filing of 140/485 or not IF YOUR EMPLOYER IS WILLING to pay extra premium processing for 140. IF not , it makes minimal difference (2-3 months delay). Earlier this year, people were getting 140 approved on 6-8 weeks on average without premium fee.
If your date is not current:
This rule makes 0 difference. File 140 and wait for approval while your date moves forward. Once its current, file 485. So everyone who is retrogressed, this rule makes no difference to you 485 filing and getting EAD/AP.
If your date is current: File 140, regular processing 2-3 months and then file 485. If you can get premium processing done then it would be 15 days and then file 485. Either ways, you are delay in filing 485 by 2-3 months. In the grand scheme of things, its negligible. It would take even 2 months for your lawyer to get the paperwork straight for filing 485.
So please relax, this new rule that does not allow concurrent filing of 485 and 140 is not earth-shattering. Its a revenue generation move. And its good as long as revenue stays in USCIS as they do need revenue to hire more people to process files faster, which is in our own benefit. The only problem we have is the rise in fees generates revenue which often times does not stay with USCIS and goes away to other agencies of DHS(I think, this was mentioned in CIS Ombudsman report, if I am not wrong).

I wonder if this is one of the rogue users from another forum. this is tiring to post everyday, but here are IVs acheivements:
Of course no one is forcing you to donate, you can just go around complaining, accusing and attacking everyone for the next 10 years instead.
Dude, I have also donated to IV but i am not sure why that "donor" doesn't come next to my name. I wish everyone donates atleast $25 to support IV and for you "tonyHK12" stopping being a Jerk and accusing people as being attackers (when you don't know about anyone), if you need to encourage people to donate start a new thread and direct people to the new thread.
